Kuro no Maou

Leaving again with the dawn, we reached the village of Ischia on the night of the bright platinum month 28.

"The battle seems to be in good health."

"Right."

The village of Ischia has also been attacked by a legion of monsters, Celia has told us.

I thought maybe we could have a fight before we entered the village, but fortunately we could safely enter the village from the East Gate without even counting with a single monster.

A monster came from the Ischia hills, which meant that the West Gate on the other side thought it was the main stage of the battle, but apparently the village was besieged and traces of the battle could also be seen near the East Gate.

Rolling corpses are centaurs and goblins, some of them with torn wings and some pegasus. Looks like a really wide variety of monsters have stormed in.

People's bodies are not found, probably because there were no victims, but because they are already being held.

You welcomed me and Nell, the face of the red armored Sparda knight showed obvious feelings of fatigue and grief.

A group of other vigilantes and adventurers are similar.

Even though I don't like the sight of the Alsace War, my chest feels a little agitated again.

"Chrono-kun."

You perceived my emotions, I get worried voices.

"It's all right, more than that, it seems impossible to get a rescue unit out of the village"

I'm going straight through the village's central street from the east gate to the west gate so I can get through the village as I go.

As far as the situation is concerned, we can see that there is very little room for rescue personnel.

I don't seem to allow any intrusion into the village into boulders, but if you look at people rushing around in the middle of the night like it's treatment or repair stone walls, you can understand that this is already a situation where defense is all you need to know more about.

Worst of all, the evacuation of the inhabitants is incomplete.

As I passed through the centre, I saw unarmed women and children, old men. Looks like they're evacuating inside a big building, mainly the Adventurer Alliance.

There were already signs of a state of siege at the first stage of the attack, or even of the appearance of monsters in the streets behind the escape route.

You can't run away, it's too late when you realize that you had no choice but to stand and stand in this village.

I didn't know the villagers were in such a stuffed situation. If it's not about Ischia Castle, I'd like to join the defense right now.

"Hey! You, Chrono, why are you here?"

Unexpectedly, a shadow popped up in front of Mary as she progressed.

Little fat man with thin dirty leather armor.

Either that face or, no, it's this hostile voice that I remember for sure.

"You are, indeed, from the village of Quaal..."

"You speak the name of the village!

It should have been named Nakim, Village Village Vigilante.

Ever since I met you in Sparta's Glades, you seem to have a grudge against me no different from then, but naturally, naturally.

He's just like me, no, because he lost everything more than me.

"You've got to be kidding me, showing up here. You want to destroy one more village, you plague god!!

God of plagues, you're right.

It has nothing to do with Nakim whether I'm trying to protect him or not. From his point of view, I am the great sinner who led the villagers to death no matter where they went.

And I, I can't deny it, I shouldn't.

I don't argue, I just don't want to hear anything else.

"Stand back."

For a moment, I didn't know whose voice that was.

But there's only one thing you heard right behind me.

"... Nell?

Looking back, there was a cold, faceless nell that lurked the usual gentle shadow.

In that hand, when did you take it out, the 'White Winged Libra' that healed my right arm, is gripped, pointing it as if it were going to poke a blade at Nakim.

"I made it the first princess of Avalon, Nell Julius Ellord of the rank five party Wingro-do. disrespect to my friend, I forgive you only once, but not twice. Back off, and don't show up in front of me again."

That was an incredible, cold voice. No, the other day, I'm hearing the same Nell voice.

'You're telling me to back off! I'll execute you for treason. Yikes!!

Proclamation of execution directed at a lady of Avalon nobility, such as Christina, brightly resuscitates in her brain.

And even now, it was as effective as it was then.

"Damn... I'm sorry too..."

I guess I knew who Nell was without having to name him. Nakim immediately drowned his head as he spoke remorsefully of the words of apology.

Is this the guy called Power - no, it's not, it's definitely my fault that Nell imitated something that's not like this.

From her point of view, I may seem to have been wronged, but no, there's a point in what Nakim said.

I don't know what to say, no, this place shouldn't say anything, like scratching off a patrol like that.

Gooooooon!

The bell sounded.

"There's a monster coming! Whoa!

Without having to think about the meaning of the bell, such a scream told me the answer.

It is unclear how this happened, but Nakim, apparently engaged in a defensive battle, just turned himself over and left the scene.

I've only looked back at me once with chills and resentment. I've turned my gaze, but now I'm not in such a peaceful situation that I can be dented in it.

"Don't be a breakthrough in the enemy."

"It's okay, I'll protect Krono-kun."

"That's comforting"

Yes, now is not the time to regret past failures. It's just that we have to move forward to help our friends!

The Ischia Village Defense Battle, which began in the early morning of the 22nd of the month of Platinum, is already about to pass its fifth day.

The large army, as if it had led all the monsters living in the dungeon, did not, however, swallow the village in one breath like the tsunami, but only repeated sporadic attacks.

The gradual injection of force was the worst measure in the battle, but it nevertheless definitely forced exhaustion and sacrifice to vigilantes and adventurers defending the village of Ischia.

"A little more or a little more endurance and the Knights will come! Keep your temper up. Hey!!

Gustav, who leads the rank five party Iron Ghosts, flies in front of the impending West Gate with a new Monster Squad.

The presence of this loud red oak preserves the morale of the soldiers defending the village of Ischia.

The boulders were the only magnificent ones to wrap up the big bands of parties, and it was really accustomed to standing in command of these formations.

Quick situational decisions and action orders on grandeur, besides their overwhelming combat abilities.

And he showed it before his eyes, and there was none that disobeyed, nor relied on it.

"Zedra, what's the composition of the herd?

Gustav asked Zedra, one of the party members standing on the ledge set in front of the gate, as he took charge of one giant gold bar that had smashed the monster's skull scattered to this day.

"Dagger Raptor ahead, Centaur and Slime in the rear, Death with herds of Harpi in the air too"

Zedra of Golem, covered in white and black two-tone coloured armor, replied to the pronunciation as subtly as ever.

The golem-like red first (mono eyelens) captured exactly what a monster squad would look like coming from across the street.

What you can carry on your left hand is a huge mechanical bow with a pulley mechanism that combines gears at both ends of the string.

On its back, an arrow made of a composite alloy of Holy Silver (Mithril) (Union Metal), which can be a blow special if released, packs a glass of eyes into a giant arrow that is more appropriate if you call it a barrel.

Super weight, armed with the body, is likely to collapse this robust wax just because of it, but where it still doesn't collapse, it doesn't seem to have reached its endurance limit yet.

"What about Salamander?

"Confirmed, Sen."

The absence of the most alarming fire dragon in the current situation spreads a slight relief.

Most of all, no matter how many lights (torches) you launch to illuminate your surroundings, it's hard to discover if you're not approached pretty close in this dark night. It is forbidden to be alarmed.

However, it is also a problem to be overly alert to invisible enemies, Gustav makes an immediate decision to attack.

"Alright, if that's the case, go lightly and kick your ass! Open the door!!"

Heavy wooden gates turn open/close operated pulleys for a few originally, but only two now.

"Ugh! Don't let the maiden do all this hard work! Funnnnnnnnnnnn!!

"Yes, go - noooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Minotaur (Â) and Cyclops, party members serving as avant-garde alongside Gustav, did so lightly.

With giggles and blunt blushes, both open gates open.

Swordsman and warrior class avant-garde units kicking monsters from the front start moving forward.

In that, Gustav inadvertently discovered an unfamiliar figure.

No, it might be natural to catch your eye. That was because he looked uninterrupted and prominent: a man in black across a fine bodily black horse like an officer riding, and an angel riding behind him.

"Hey, black Nietzhan over there, your first face I've ever seen, but you're an adventurer who came to the rescue after a while?

The emergency in the village of Ischia has already been passed on to each of the surrounding villages.

I guess an emergency quest was issued, around the second day a group of adventurers were rushing me as a rescue unit from nearby villages.

You're welcome to say that one or both of you have come to help, although it's only a little late to climb up, but now it's as much a situation as I'd like to borrow a cat's hand.

"No, we're going to the old Ischian castle."

"Ha-ha, is that what your princess's wagamama says?"

Gustav shows instant understanding.

No matter how indistinguishable the human face is or anything like that, there is only one of them, even though they are spacious, such as a woman who looks like an angel with pure white wings from her back.

"No, that's wacky."

"Yeah, I'm not gonna stop you. I was worried about the kids left in the castle. Well, as you can see, there's not enough room to go and help you that way."

We know that students from the Royal Spartan Seminary are coming to practice outdoors, and that they are standing in the ancient castle of Ischia awaiting rescue is what we know by the decree of the woman in the assassin class who appeared the other day.

Naturally, I also know that Sparda's royal nobleman little girl is waiting for a lot of help, but at any rate, she's understaffed.

They will be forced into a tough battle for the castle, but until the full rescue corps of the Knights of Sparta arrives, they will defend the village of Ischia, so they will do their best.

The students' lives would otherwise seem hopeless, but the truth is Gustav wasn't so worried.

The prince of Avalon, who fought happily in the guild's liquor store, does feel with his own hands that he has the skill to name Rank 5.

There were hopeful observations that if there were rumours of "Wing Road," we would be able to fight enough to prevent the Monster Corps from being rescued.

"I wanted to fight here too, sorry"

"Ha-ha-ha! The village can be solved by just me and the others, I don't care about this one, go help me quickly!

"Thanks"

"Thank you"

Gustav, who also gave the princess her immediate words of gratitude, dropped off the black horse with the two as they were.

Naturally, the Monster Squad, which has just emerged, is waiting for us before that one rides off.

Zedra, clear the way.

Copy that, Death. Head.

From above, a response from the voice of a heavy bass and the sound of an arrow being observed in the machine bow with a guillotine and a twitch.

"I didn't even hesitate to go in. I like it when you're young these days, but you can't beat me."

A black man and princess who decided to be strong prepared. At the same time as he leaked such an impressive voice to the two figures, Gustav heard the sound of a strong bow unleashed overhead.
